A Word from the Author:
I wrote Ovis Quae Cursum Amisit during the Summer of 2020, following my graduation from college. I decided that, without taking any organized Latin courses, I needed to keep up with the language in another way. In addition to reading the ancient texts, I focused my efforts on Conversational Latin, and, eventually, I decided writing a novella would be a productive way to improve my composition skills as well.
I chose a sheep as the main character because it is my wife's favorite animal. I chose her name, and the others, because we both liked them. My favorite of all the names in the book is Vullius (pronounced WOOL-ee-us) because he is a sheep... with wool.
